About me
Greetings, Everyone! My name is Teneka, and I am a certified full spectrum doula with a focus on postpartum support, newborn care specialist, and certified CPR and BLS instructor. I currently support families in Cypress, Katy, Fulshear, Jersey Village, The Heights, and Midtown areas of the Houston metropolitan area. As a mother of three adult sons with over 25 years of experience in the healthcare industry, I have dedicated my life to supporting others through some of life’s most profound transitions. My personal birthing experiences, each resulting in C-sections, included life-threatening complications during my last delivery and the postpartum period. These challenges ignited a passion within me to be the eyes, ears, hands, and voice for anyone undergoing significant life changes, like welcoming new life to the Earthside. My approach is grounded in respect for your choices, reverence for the recovery process, and a deep understanding of the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of childbirth and postpartum recovery. I strive to create a safe, nurturing space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to make informed decisions that align with your values and preferences. As your partner in these sacred journeys, I am committed to providing holistic services that honor your individual needs, respect your culture and values, and support your transition into a new phase of life. Together, let’s create beautiful beginnings and cherish every moment as you welcome new life and embrace your new self.

My goal is to empower families and help them to thrive during their postpartum phase.

Ratings and reviews
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Teneka! From the moment we started working together, I felt extremely comfortable with her, which immediately lessened any anxiety I had about having a stranger in my home overnight. She has been an absolute lifesaver in helping us establish a nighttime feeding schedule for our baby, which has made a world of difference. Thanks to her guidance and support, I’ve been able to get the rest I need to show up as the best mom I can be. With a husband who works unpredictable hours and travels frequently, most of the baby care falls on me right now, and having Teneka by my side has made our experience as first time parents so much easier. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, but she also truly cares for our baby in such a loving way—the way she talks to him makes my heart so happy, knowing he is being loved and nurtured throughout the night when I’m not there. Beyond her exceptional care, Teneka also goes above and beyond in so many ways. She helps keep up with baby laundry, ensures that the baby bottles and pump parts are always clean, and even tidies up around the house at times—all things that make my life so much easier. If you are looking for a compassionate, trustworthy, and dedicated postpartum doula, I highly recommend Teneka! She has truly been a game-changer for our family, and we are so grateful for her.
